More than $9 million has been committed to a national system that would help workers connect with employers looking for people with their skills and training.
The skills passport system is intended to help workers advertise their full range of qualifications, micro-credentials, prior learning, workplace experience and general capabilities.There's a proposal to create an Australia-wide system to connect workers looking for a new job with employers seeking people with specialised skills and training.
Businesses, unions, tertiary institutions and students are among those the federal government says will be consulted about the initiative. "We want to make it easier for more workers in more industries to adapt and adopt new technology and to grab the opportunities on offer in the defining decade ahead of us," Chalmers said.
It's expected to bring together several reform agendas, such as changes to the migration system, under one banner.
